The Eibach pro springs are fitted!!!!!!!
Drove my usual way home last night - about 18miles of rough B road - my opinion during the drive - out loud - YES, YES, YES F#CKING YES!!!!!!! - Meg Ryan - you don't even get a look in!
Banashed is the soft period during role, repalced with surefooted direct responce and very minimal role, soaks up the larger bumps as good as ever and now handles like a dream. Also by removing some of the polish and providing some further through the pants feel that the car actualy feels faster. Negitive side - yes there is some, but a small price to pay for the huge grin factor - at slower speeds the frequency of the smaller bumps is sharper, but again on the move this is what provides the greater feed back. Overall the ride composure is retained and although bumpier is by no means uncomfortable.
The springs are black just like the originals so hard to spot come your service time!
Another benefit is the stance - 10 to 15mm does not sound much but it makes a huge difference IMO and yet still retains that factory look - infact the look the car should havre come out with in the first place.
Now i have no complaints about the car - its now the GTI that i expected - so don't be worried - as Starsky would say - 'do it'
